keep passing the buck, it's what we're doing here in the US.

I firmly support nuclear power. But storing waste materials for indefinite times in wildly distributed conditions - cooling pools and mass storage above ground - is going to bite us in the ass eventually. good luck Deutschland.

I firmly support nuclear power.

So where do you like to store the waste?

we can't figure it out here, hence my first sentence.

were it up to me, I'd pick some place as geologically isolated and stable as possible. Yucca presents most of those possibilities.

Unlike Germany, the us has large uninhabited spaces far away from people or underground water reservoirs where they can dig a hole and forget about it ..

you'd think that but still we have protesters. and I get it, no one wants to be known for storing a few gigatons of radioactive waste in their geology. BUT. Choosing not to put it somewhere just distributes the problem further and makes many, many risk vectors out of what should be a secured resource.

and I say that because the other thing centralization would allow for is the reprocessing of spent fuels into new fuels and byproducts. as is, shit's just sitting around decaying.

edit: I love the downvotes who don't have anything to say, they just disapprove. are they anti nuke, or so pro nuke I'm not pro enough?

we'll never know because they lack the spine to type out a comment.
